I also run Thunderbird. Depending on the list it has a Reply and also a Reply List button but on some lists only a reply button. I suppose it depends on what is in the header. On some lists reply goes only to the original sender and in some goes to the list. The radio list I mentioned before was set up so that sending to the list required cutting and pasting the list address into the To field. I think this is a very bad idea but the list owner seemed to like it. I have not encountered this elsewhere.

If it up were up to me, "reply" would be only to the original sender, and 
"reply-list/reply-all"
would be what it sounds like, a reply all.

It comes down to balancing the value of reply-all (stimulate discussing) vs the 
danger
(someone starts blathering on about politics, or gossiping about other list 
members).
Then again, this list is pretty darn civilized, so the risk of the downside is 
mitigated.

P.S. Film vs digital: I can't stand the B&W Film Filter in my new Canon 80D. If 
you want
the look of B&W film, you must shoot B&W film.
